Image: Oireachtas.ie TAX MEASURES MAY need to be looked in order to keep ‘mom-and-pop landlords’ from exiting the market, according to Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien.
During a Dáil debate on rent and housing issues today, Sinn Féin’s housing spokesperson Eoin Ó Broin raised concerns about the rising number of people in homelessness. The group said changing legislation associated with the residential rental market had become a deterrent to non-institutional landlords, stating that the selling up of rental properties will put further pressure on the pool of property available for tenants.
“Covid-related protections were also necessary but they may have contributed to the decision of some to leave the sector. “In Dublin we have seen the end of the Covid-19 flattening of rents, with a significant upward increase of 9% for new rents. This means that the average cost of a new rental in Dublin today is €23,634, which is an astonishing sum of money.
During a tetchy back-and-forth, the minister accused Ó Broin of “losing his temper again”, stating: “he cannot behave himself”.

And the great giveaway of public money to the already loaded continues
Our state is paying millions to help people pay unaffordable rents. These unaffordable rents are due to decades of not building enough social housing. Forget about trying to fix the supply issues through the private market. Commit to building enough LA housing DarraghOBrienTD
Why not tax the greedy vultures? FFG cronies?
